Alfonso Nishikawa commented on GORA-174: ---------------------------------------- @Julien: after analyzing your test classes patch, I think they work as expected: before your changes, the class WebPage exists, and method WebPage#setContent() too. After your patch, without regenerating the class WebPage, the method WebPage#setContent() too, so WebPage#setContent(null) will not fail. DataFileAvroStore success writing a null. No problem. To make it fail must: modify webpage.json, regenerate WebPage, and will not compile because the method WebPage#setContent() will not exist. > GORA compiler does not handle ["string", "null"] unions in the AVRO schema > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: GORA-174 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GORA-174 > Project: Apache Gora > Issue Type: Bug > Components: schema > Affects Versions: 0.2.1 > Reporter: Julien Nioche > Assignee: Alfonso Nishikawa > Fix For: 0.3 > > Attachments: GORA-174.patch, GORA-174-test.patch, > patch-tests_applied.out.tgz > > > See NUTCH-1477 for description. > We are getting NPE when using the DataFileAvroStore, in order to avoid that I > modified the schema to allow for null values on some fields e.g. {"name": > "baseUrl", "type": ["string", "null"] } > however when generating the code for the schema the accessors are not > generated by GORA which prevents Nutch from compiling -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
